Crew were welcoming, accommodating and they worked hard to find places for all carry on.

very average service no complimentary alcoholics drinks unlike other airlines such as Porter airlines No decent seats available during check-in time the day before

It was great. There were some issues prior to takeoff. The weather was poor so we had to go through deicing, and we were delayed a bit by the pilots' concern about one of the engines, but that's aviation. The pilots handled everything with aplomb, and kept us apprised

Unbelievably poor service from flight attendants. They didn’t even do water service on a four hour flight. Just disrespectful.

I dread trans-Pacific flights. They are very long. This was my first time on Universal, and it was my best crossing ever. The staff were professional, the hospitality was great, and the food was delicious. The entertainment system filled the long flight hours. I will seek out Universal flights from now onwards. 🙂

My flight was delayed about 1 1/2 hours in Chicago, but other then that it was a good flight.

We were given vouchers we couldn’t use with a 5.5 hour delay

The flight was delayed, it took longer than anticipated because of weather, and they broke my luggage.

lots of delays the crew were unclear about where to pick up my carry-on, which they took from me to check in on the plane.

I was refused to used the toilet closes to my seat and had to go to the back of the plane .. it was difficult for me I’m a wheelchair customer

The flight was good. My luggage didn’t land with me when I arrived in Columbus. So grateful I was able to get my luggage back within the 2 hours😍👍.

I knew I was going to fall asleep unsettlingly from exhaustion so I warned the guy next to me in advance. The attendant took to checking on me frequently and even insisted I take my snack because I said no while sleep hazed and then absolutely wanted it about 5 minutes later. He was So caring and kind to my situation!!

The Flight Attendant was particularly helpful to my wife, who was having a bad day.

we missed the flight because the preceding one was late. air canada said that because it was caused by air traffic control they would not put us up in a hotel, so since the next flight we could get anywhere near where we live is to san francisco tomorrow morning, two senior citizens are having to spend tonight in the food court at vancouver airport. NOT HAPPY.

Flight attendants were delightful, smiling, anticipating needs, and overall excellent. Pilots kept us informed and made 1 of the best soft landings!

It is air Canada so leaving 20 minutes late is very acceptable

One United employee a little impatient, also on flight WiFi was out for some time. I was happy to receive a complimentary alcoholic beverage for volunteering to check my carry on bag.

Everything was great, staff, planes, at the gate. All around everything was a pleasure flying .

I COULD NOT GET ON THE FLIGHT BECAUSE THE AIR CANADA CHECK-IN STAFF COULD NOT CHECK ME IN NEITHER COULD THEY DIRECT ME TO THE ALTERNATIVE CHECK-IN AIRLINE I DIDN'T FLY AND HAD TO REBOOK ANOTHER AIRLINE, PORTER FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY. I NEED MY REFUND FOR THE RETURN LEG

Ground crew (AC8596, Jul,8,23) on check in kindly gave me a basic seat in accordance to my status (obesity over 300) but Sophia at gate 88 changed my seat from 17D to 19A without my consent and before even see me. This change put me in an emergency exit seat with fixed handles that I hardly fit and couldn’t completely sit, also put other passengers at risk due to I couldn’t move in emergency case. I asked attendant too to move me somewhere else but she didn’t. After 2 hours of suffering both sides of my body are were numbed and bruised. I will make an official grieving.
